Biodegradable characteristics of octacalcium phosphate combined with collagen implanted in two bony sites

Abstract

Synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been shown to be a resorbable bone regenerative material. In this study, OCP combined with collagen (OCP/Col) or collagen was implanted into the critical-sized defects or into the subperiosteal region in rat crania and fixed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after implantation. The percentage of newly formed bone and the tissue including the implant were determined by a histomorphometric analysis. Activities of tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) were stained to examine phagocytotic multinucleated giant cells. The effect of implantation on crystalline phase of OCP in the implant was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The present study suggests that the bone formation on OCP/Col and biodegradation of OCP/Col is distinct depending on the implantation sites.
